Hi guys,

(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
since we are at the beginning of the Christmas weeken I am not only outfit planing but also make-up planing. My go to beauty products for Christmas time include lots of glitter, shimmer and deep bold colors. A must have is a deep red lipstick like this one I recently got. The color is a beautiful rich red matte shade.

I also opt for a much more dramatic eyeshadow than during the other months. A brown, black or even olive smokey eye can look really cool with a sequin dress.  

I got two make-up looks for you today. A classic Christmas look with lots of red and a trendy look with metallic brown, dark green and sparkles.

Both looks are created with my favorite drug store products. Each one is under 15 € and should be available all the time.


Which are your favorites ? Do you prefer classic or trendy ?


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hi guys,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
Christmas time is gift set time and gift sets are something I love. They are always designed so beautiful with so much love and from year to year I can´t decide which ones to take so I am always having too much. This year I have broken it down to a total of five. All under 20 € and for different people in your life. 
I love their products and usually use one line at a time. Last year the Happy Buddha gift set was given to me (I had used the Sakura before) and I found a new favorite. There are always sample sizes innside of all the products the linie includes. Great to try and find out your favorites and I am also always saving the boxes cause they are just the prettiest. 
Perfect for – mom, grandma, sister, collegue, girl friend, mother-in-law, stocking stuffer

This is a set I thought looked really cool cause of the wooden print outside. It has a tart scent and is a two in one which is prefered by a lot of men (also by mine) cause it is way more practical than using two different things – oh boy!. I think it was under 10€.
Perfect for – hubby, dad, brother, granddad, collegue, minimalist, stocking stuffer
I have seen this and absolutely fell in love cause it is just the cutest. The pink packaging, the cute miniature products and the Eifel Tower – sold. This is perfect if you have someone who wants to try out luxury products first before buying them. This would also make a great gift if you have a teenager in your family which just starts using make-up or even just for yourself.
Perfect for –  sister, beauty lover, girl friend, stocking stuffer

I wanted to have this for myself but I also got a second one cause I think this is a set you get one of the best deals with in drug store products. It costs 12 € and has a value of  16 € so in fact you get one of the products for free and all the original sizes.
Perfect for everyone who loves vanilla.

This set includes the top three popular nail colors of 2017 which I think is not bad at all. You have a choice and are always on trend by wearing one these. It really is nice to have the smaller size to try them out before spending a lot on the normal size. This would be perfect for a beauty and make-up lover in your family or among your friends.

You see there are great gift sets for a reasonable price out there which also make the gift receiver happy and you don´t have to spend a fortune on presents.

I hope that helped a little. I have listed some more sets in the widget below. Each and everyone 20€ or under. Have fun shopping and even more fun gifting.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hi guys, 
(post contains affiliate links / Beitrag/Werbung enthält Affiliate Links)
another month is over and Christmas is almost here now so besides all the other things I am preparing for the most wonderful time of the year I am still testing out the new products I got for you. 
Ardell brow sculpting gel
I got this since I was reading so much about brows lately and I hate that mine are looking in every direction when I get home. Yes they might be too long but they should stay where they are. I am not lying to you first I did not know if I would like it cause it has such a jelly consistency and I am not quite sure if it does the trick for me. I really have strange brows. But I am definitely gonna incorporate this into my daily beauty routine. It does hold for a few hours but not the whole day. Although the price is more than okay and the smell is awesome.  
4Lou Too Glam to give a Damn vanity case
I saw it and I had to have it. Isn´t it the coolest?! There are different texts available. Also love this one. The pouch is made of a thick linen material and since it isn´t the biggest it is perfect for your handbag. To carry your make-up or too carry your medicines and other stuff you take with you. It is about 20€ and I would buy it definitely again.
I first saw this on Olivia Jeanette´s insta stories and I was curious. I got this two weeks ago and I have been using it for about ten days now but it is just to early to say if there are any results. If not it is okay cause it is only about 3€. Stay tuned.

 Artdeco nailpolish in – 673 red volcano
835 ivy green
For upcoming Christmas there should be two colors outstanding among the others in your closet. Red and green – my all time Christmas favorites. I love the ardeco nailpolishes cause they are high pigmented, last a long time and have a reasonable pricing.



EOS peppermint lip balm – limited edition for Christmas 
I am absoluetly obsessed with this. This is the perfect balm for Christmas time. If you could only know how much I love candy canes in my hot chocolate you would totally understand. You definitely need this if you won´t miss the Christmas smell wherever you go.



I know I have had brow pencils from different brands the last two month and I thought I would prefer them over a powder but I wasn´t really satisfied – although I liked them and will definitely keep them and use them until they are used up. But the brow palette is perfect I love it. I got the color medium and it fits perfectly for my dark blonde eyebrows. I am only using the light shade. The brush isn´t really good so I am using my own. The powder is high pigmented so you won´t need a ton of the product and I think it is totally worth the 23 €.
 This style is a limited edition, I think it might only be available through the holidays. First I wanted all of them but I slowed myself down and thought about which one I could possibly need and I went for the blush brush. It is the best I own now. I has the right amount of solidity and it takes the right amount of product to get some nice color onto your cheeks. And the glitter guys reflects so beautiful in the light!!!!
This smells amazing. So so good. 
I first thought this could work as a sample size cause it really is small but after playing around with it I found out you really need a teeny tiny bit of the powder if you don´t want to use it for Halloween cause since it is translucent it covers and it is buildable.

 L´oréal 2in1 base and top coat
I have only used this as a top coat so far. I don´t like the thought on using this as a base coat since I have a trusted one from essie. But it works really great as a top coat. Dries quick and doesn´t get scratches or chips so easily. For 8 € it also has a great price point and since I have a lot of the L´oréal nail polishes I like using the matching products.

Garnier eye make-up remover
Just another addition. I am really satisfied how it takes of my eye make-up and for the price of 4 € there isn´t a  thing to complain.

Garnier micell facial toner 
Throughout the years I have been using so many facial toner I don´t know if they would be even countable. I had some which smelled awful, I had expensive and cheap ones. I tried trendy ones and some which where on the market forever. I had so many toners which left a gross and sticky feel on my skin but then came Garnier. It is the first one I don´t have to clean my face afterwards cause it is light and has no smell.

Rituals candle
They make some of the best candles on the market. I love Yankee Candles but they are a little better. A little more expensive too but you can have the smell of your favorite shower gel also in your living room now. Perfec addition for a cozy weekend indoors. 

Do you have any favorites ? 

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hi guys,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
and welcome to my first Christmas gift guide of 2017.  I plan on posting five different gift guides for all the different recipients in your and my life. Let´s start with the beauty junkie today cause as a self-appointed one I almost couldn´t wait on sharing this gift guide with you. 
There are many products which make a great gift on their own cause they are almost to expensive to buy yourself throughout the year and there are gift sets which have a great price point and really good items to try for a fraction of the normal price or for example the perfume gift sets. You get the fragrance in the regular size for the normal price and a bodylotion or shower gel in original sizing for free and also a beautiful packaging.
And after all the Christmas gift hunt and stress decorating and baking there should be something for ourselves too so why not get your selves a gift set as well ??
What do you like best whether it is for yourself or someone who loves beauty items like you do?
Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
